Jackson averaged 18.2 points, 4.5 assists and 4.3 rebounds per game last season. He was the team’s leading scorer as it rebounded from a sub-.500 season and went 21-13 (9-7 Atlantic Coast Conference) under new coach Steve Donahue.

Jackson was named to the All-ACC first team, and earned an honorable mention for The Associated Press All-America team.

He has until May 8 to remove his name from consideration and retain his college eligibility.
